With qualifiers over, focus of 32 finalists shifts to PUBG Global Championship 2023
The various PUBG Global Championship 2023 qualification events have come to a close, and the season now moves closer to the grand finale. Twenty-seven teams from the four regions, plus the host country and top four sides from the two PUBG Global Series combined, have sealed their places at this mega event, and fans can't wait for the action to unfold.
Over the last month, leagues in the various regions were held to see which teams would progress to the most important competition on the annual PUBG esports calendar. As always, the Asian editions outperformed their Western counterparts, although nothing can be certain when it comes to translating such stats into tangible success at the PGC 2023.
